Got my (max 30 dollar) lunch expensed for a team webex; gf is mad I didn’t buy her anything but I had to use my corp card. Am I the asshole?

I have a virtual interview with Tesla tomorrow for an internship position. What should I wear? This would be first internship, so I’ve never interviewed for a position like this and am not sure how to dress (especially given it’s virtual). Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

Why shoes do you wear for work? That are Comfy & look good

How do you work with a fellow coworker after they have said a horrible racist word that was very offensive to you? I'm finding it very difficult to forgive and move on.

Do firms typically share closing binders on M&A deals? Putting one together and an associate on the other side offered to share theirs whenever I asked for a particular document that I was missing. Is it an insult that I had to get them to give me theirs?

Mac or HP or Dell: I prefer Mac notebooks. However it seems there might be limitations with the use of Skype or other applications based on materials I have seen. What do you all recommend is the best laptop for working at Deloitte?

Does Deloitte use Teams or Skype?

Hi Fishes,

I got offer Letter from infosys 2.5 months back, now when I am trying to decline the offer by sending a mail to HR, it was not getting delivered as HR left the organisation 1 month back, I forwarded mail to feedback team of infosys but still got the mail from onboarding team with joining details and WebEx link, kindly suggest how to proceed in this case.

Scheduling added another S3 (my level) to my engagement but acting as a manager, while I’ve been on this engagement for a few years and getting great reviews. My ego is shot and I’m insulted. Advice?

Sometimes I come in early or work late just so I don't have to listen to my partner talk.

As a new associate finishing up what will likely be my largest/only provision client going forward, is it appropriate/professional to ask the client employee that I worked with the most for feedback?

On a scale of 1-10, how “mature” would you consider the people in your offices/teams? In terms of acting their age, respectful, etc.

Is joining cisco with 26 base 3 lk bonus and 3.5 joining bonus with 6yoe in Cisco webex good?

Just discovering RSD after being diagnosed as an adult. I feel like SO MUCH of my life has been impacted by this and I just never had a name for it. At work if someone gives me negative or constructive feedback it can feel like a punch in the chest even if I know it's not personal. Makes romantic relationships so hard too. What do you do to handle it especially at work?

What’s the best way of selling work to your boss if he’s just not current on new stuff? I keep getting handed references from some directors from 10 years ago and I want to say “hey, what about something from this year, not last century”

I have a crush on my counsellor at work. She's much older but still really gracious and beautiful. Should I go for it or is this a bad idea?

Found out today my toxic manager bad mouthed me to an HR rep in a different division. This correlated with his bad management and abusive behavior. Luckily the new manager I’ll soon be working with dismissed it. Her words of wisdom “reflect on what you could have done differently, you can only control your actions”. How does that resonate for you? Have you had similar experiences?

There are too many men out there who think that just because I'm being polite, it's a sign that they should flirt with me while I'm at work. I thought this was 2022, why haven't we as a society gotten past this yet?

What is the advice on what feedback to leave for a peer who really sucks at everything y'all have worked together on? It's about the time where everyone on my team requests feedback from each other and I'm nervous for it coming up. My manager knows that everything I've worked w her on I end up doing 90% of the work when it's meant to be split so it is a known issue. We're both at level 3 so are genuinely peers. She seems like a nice person but i have 0 positive work feedback tbh

Hi Fishes,

Is it in poor taste to reach out to a professor at a school I already interviewed for but am waiting on a decision from? He used to be a partner at my current firm and we have similar backgrounds so thought it would be helpful to discuss a few things with him

Has anyone interviewed for a product/PM role at Meta recently? I'm wondering what the phone screen is like. I do have a book to help me interview if I make it to the later rounds and plan to do some mocks. Just trying to prep one step at a time. Thanks!

When putting in notice, do you set up calls with your MD and manager separately? Or both on the same call?

On the beach for a short bit so no meetings set in a usable timeframe. I have a good relationship with both but they usually aren't on the same calls. Oh, and before anyone says to do it over email, and I've already decided to do this over a call. So let's leave that out of the way.

For my curiosity, how much are you paid? Do you feel as though it is an appropriate amount for our job?

Would you marry someone who can’t have kids?

Hello fam! Hope you’ll are enjoying your Sunday!

I faked my resume I mean my contracting firm did and I didn’t have choice and I got the job. Now my client wants to offer me a full time position. I kind of feel like they trust me with the work I’m doing and also considering my past experiences to offer me a full time and moreover it’s only been 3 months.

I know it’s a little unusual but what do you guys think/suggest me to do in this situation?!

Does anyone remember in grade school when one of the assignments was during the time scientists announced Pluto was not a planet and some teachers had us write essays and whether Pluto should or shouldn’t be a planet using so scientific based arguments? I panicked daily about the state of our education system in America.

Question for the married 🐠- Have you ever gone to couples therapy? If so, how did it work out for you? Did it help and do you now live your life happily ever after? Or did it just delay the inevitable and you are no longer in a relationship with your significant other? I’ve seen so many people go to therapy only to end up breaking up shortly afterwards and dropping some serious $$$

Staying downtown Columbus Hilton for my wife’s job conference and we have to use valet parking since I need to use my car to go to work every day. $40 a day, how much do I tip and is it when I drop my car off and when they bring it to me in the morning?

Frustrated my fiancé keeps talking about raising our future kids in the way he was raised. We’re from different cultures. He wants to name them based on his culture, send them to schools with dual immersion in his language so “they don’t get too American,” and has even mentioned moving so they’re exposed to his homeland and culture. Religiously he is fine raising with both our relig but def wants them to participate in some of the orthodoxy of his more so (cont)

I’m a closeted no book reader. I’ve maybe read 5 books over the last 10 years… My teams over the years are always talking about all the books they read and providing recommendations, but luckily people tend to be more interested in sharing what they read rather than listening so I’ve made it this far. I’m worried I’ll be discovered one day

It takes me so little time to get tasks for my job done but I need to hit utilization so I just stretch out my time…..

Happy Sunday! Just curious: What’s a relationship dealbreaker for you?

Friend is hosting a party where I will only know the host. Presumably host will be busy with others. How do I mingle and make conversation with a bunch of people who know each other?

My mom says to marry a man who loves me, not a man who I love. Happily married wives: thoughts?

My uncle I met a week ago suddenly died. He hid his heart condition from his wife, my aunt. He was having tea in the morning when he had a stroke. She did not have a last word or consider the possibility that he’d pass away so suddenly and soon. She is beating herself up over how he left and they didn’t have a chance to talk that morning. Fishes, sharing this so you call your loved ones today and not take people for granted.

I went to a networking event today, but deep down I want to marry a prince/ trust fund only child and be a stay at home TikTok wife/mum .

No offense, but I’ve never heard a sea shanty that didn’t go hard as hell

Follow up of another confession: what was your experience with backstabbing?
When did you do it?
When did you received it?

Genuine question - why do people slide into DMs on here? Why would you spend time trying to get to know someone when there’s like a 1% chance you’re in the same geographical area and would have mutual interest in each other? Is it not better to spend your time on tinder or bumble to find people that are guaranteed to be nearby if you’re bored?
Edit: I mean DMs that are not platonic/networking 🙃
